There is a great deal of movement in
lands in Upper California this spring. and
particularly in improved lands. Several
transactions recently completed may be
mentioned.
One of the most beautiful and attractive
places in the Napa valley was sold last
Monday, and at price showing an advance
of 20 per cent in values. This was the
Yount place, originally settled by Governor
Boggs 1t is capable of much beautiica-
ton. There are 100 acres of grape land
and the rest is hill land. In the canyon
there is a fine stream of running water
The price paid was SIS, eco. The purchaser
was John Einnell-
Riley and Hardin, of Santa Rosa, have
recently purchased nearly 10000 acres in
Tehama county. About 6.000 acres were
under railroad contract The sale was
completed this forenoon. The purpose of
the concern is 10 have q fattening ground
for beef cattle. The firm own large ranges
in Nevada and Oregon. The level land in
che tract will be used for hay-raising, and
the remainder for winter pasturage. The
range thus purchased viii be devoted to
raising fat beef cattle 10 supply the San
Francisco markets during these months
Lux < Miller have enjoyed great adj
yantege over others in having winter past
urage Riley IL Hardin own large ranges
in Eastern Oregon and Northwestern Ne
vada. The cattle for the Tehama county
fatteniDg ranch will be brought down prin-
cipallv from Oregon.
The first OF series OF excursions to the
QroYille cosapy from Los Angeles Will ar

CONNECTICUT has taken a step--whether
backward or forward remains to be seen.
On and after the 1st of June next no rail
road trains are to be run within the Dor
ders of that State on Sunday between 1880
A. NJ and P. NJ, except in cases of urgent
necessity, and before and after those hours
only mail trains are to be permitted. If
the idea is to enforce Sunday observance,
then, to be consistent, the Legislature
should have prohibited the running of
trains on any hour of Sunday. AS it is,
Connecticut, for railroad purposes, has
shorn and curtailed the day of rest. If
the mail trains may run to accommodate
Brown, Jones and Smiths correspondence,
why not permit trains to he run to crafty
Tempkins, johnson and Thompson's de-
sire to fee into the country to worship in
Goods first temples? 7 Certainly, to be
consistent in her Sunday law, Connecticut
should have shut up shop completely all
day, not taking down the shutters for any
purpose.

THE COMMISSIONERS.

The President has named the Interstate
Commerce Commissioners Thomas NJ.
Cooley, of Michigan, the distinguished
jurist and commentator William r. Nor
rison, of Illinois, the well-known and
distinguished Congressman; A. f. Walker,
a lawyer of prominence in Vermont, who
has given the transportation problem
much study; Augustus SHOEMAKER, an
ex-Attorney General of New York, and
Waiter L. Bragg, of Alabama, ex-Presi-
dent of the Alabama Railroad Commits
sion. All these gentlemen have had more
or less acquaintance by study or practical
experience with the railroad question, and
are all intellectually and by moral char
acter qualified. That their railroad and
legal knowledge Will better fit them for
their new duties cannot be doubted. I'm
questionably the President might have APP
pointed good men to the places unfamiliar
with the law and the great question affect
ing transportation, hut that would scarcely
accord with ordinary business sagacity.
Biainy men, free from preiudices, of prac-
teal information concerning that they are
to deal with as Commissioners are safer
for the country and the railroads The
railroad people will have nothing to fear
from men of fairness, intellig ent in dealing
with the subject in hand, and actuated by
broad conservative public spirit, however
much they may take issue with the law it
self. They and the people alike might
have had cause to regret the appointment
of men to whom the subject was wholly
new, and who had not given the moment
Gus questions involved conscientious and
unprejudiced study. The purpose of ere
ating the Commission certainly was not to
make it the means of educating unin-
formed men, or affording them opportunity
to experiment at the expense of the COM
lnercial interests of the country. The Com
mission should be received with cordiality,
not be prejudged, and the estimate of its
strength, capacity and wisdom be made
upon the basis of the work it does in dis
charging its important trusts. The char
acter of the Commission is no where as
sailed it stands without reproach thus
far, and gives encouragement to the ex-
pectation that the interstate transporta-
,+ion question under tie new law will be
dealt with in a way to conserve public in
terest and private rights, to the highest
possible degree that the letter and spirit
of the law will warrant

system is not dependent upon one or one
dozen Judges, but upon the legal ability Of
the whole group Of iurists. The better
talent we call to the system, the more
rapid and satisfactory, and for the matter
of that, the more economic will be the
work accomplished. So far as the Supreme
Court is concerned, there is crying need
that the reforms proposed shall be speedily
inaugurated. There must be set up some
method for the retiracy with due honor of
Justices who. become incapacitated ; some
addition to the Court to enable it to clear
off its oyerburdened calendars, and there
must be established better system of
choosing the presiding or Chief Justice
than by election or appointment. Either Of
the latter plans makes it possible for the
least competent to be placed in authority
over the fully qualified. That the Justices
chosen by the people should select from
among their number the presiding Justice
is reasonable, and will tend to unity the
bench and promote that harmony so essen
tial to the maintenance of its dignity and
the rapid discharge of its business. So far
as salaries are concerned, they ought to
bear very close relation to what the
best legal talent of the State can command
as income by practice at the bar. The
81, 800 proposed by the amendment is not
at all large. 1t is a sum that is not beyond,
nor even up to the standard of ability that
our Supreme bench should command The
time is very brief in which the people can
consider the amendments, and there should
therefore be diligent presentation of the
reasons for them by the press of the State.
If the amendments are defeated, it will be
because of this brevity, for we do not be-
lieve that calm consideration and the
weighing of the propositions by the peo-
pie would bring other than an affirmative
response at the polls.

Prosperity at Antelope.

EDS. RECORD UNION: Antelope, hitherto
little known, is making its mark as an
agricultural district. Prior to 1884 every
thing seemed desolate, but since ]. B. Hag-
gin has opened up his vast tract of land to
the thorough farmers OF the vicinity, by
renting tracts of land to them for farming
purposes, everything looms up. Nothing
in the memory of our Oldest residents gave
such fattering promise as at present.
Wheat and barley are looking fine and
making most luxuriant growth. A large
harvest is expected.
There have been many successful socials
here during the past winter, much to the
enjoyment Of the people, young and old.
